will it end? As long as law for the
expulsion of anarchists is confined in
operation to aliens there would be no
substantial ground for complaint. I'm
fortunately anarchiSm has taken root in
American soil, and there are American
citizens who are just as fanatical
as the SPIEsEs and the Herr MosTs.
Little would be gained by eXpelling
the alien anarchists and leaving the
homemade article to flourish. If neces-
sity requires the expulsion of one it will
require the expulsion of all. And just
here is the trouble in adopting laws of
the character of the ADAMS bill. If
the government has the power to ex-
patriate its citizens because of their po-
itical opinions, what is to prevent a
dominant political party from declaring
the doctrines of the opposition to be po-
litical crimes and to make itself secure
in power by expatriating all the mem
ber5 OF the minority? Of course, this,
on the face of it,may seem far-fetched
illustration, but greater results have
often come from smaller beginnings.
At all events, it would be well for con-
greSs to consider the ADAMS bill in all
its phases and its possible consequences
before enacting it into law. The eX-
pulsiOn of the anarchists would be graf
flying to all good citizens, provided it
can be done without strain upon our
much cherished republican institutions.

THE COVETED COUNTRY.
Oklahoma Boomers Expect to
Succeed Some Time.

l.
WICHITA, Kan, Dec. 17.-Col. E. G
Cole, one of the acknowledged leaders
of the Oklahoma boom in the past, has
just returned from that country, accom-
panied by several colleagues. His trip,
which lasted nearly four weeks, was
made in the interest of the present
movement. He is very reticent about
giving information concerning the''new
crusade" as it is called, but admitted
that before long another great eff
fort will be made to occupy the coveted
country. Cole insists that their former
failure was due to information that was
spread abroad concerning their move
ments, adding that it will be in the flu
ture their policy to act more and speak
less. Capt. Couch, who is now presi-
dent of the organization, stated that
they are becoming thoroughly organ
lied, there being club for the further
ance of the object of the movement in
almost every county in Kansas,
also many in Missouri and
Texas. Concerning the time
for the march to be taken up, he refused
to give any definite information, but it
is inferred that it will be near April /.
He says the organization is more power
full than ever before, and that this win
ter every effort will be made to prevail
upon congress to open up the country;
but, should they refuse to do this, there
is no doubt but that trouble will ensue.
Couch will give the matter his personal
attention this winter at Washington.

MEN WHO TALK.

CLAIMING SEABURY, of Manifold
& SEABURY-One of the best indica-
tons of the stability of the market is
shown by the determination of the to-
baccO manufacturers to increase the
prices of this article 2 cents a pound.
This, too, despite the fact that congress
is considering the ACCESSIBILITY of reduc-
ing the tax of cents per pound now
levied on tobacco. Ordinarily agitation
of this sort would cause a decline in
prices, but tobacco men evidently do
not fear such movement, or they
would not be so unanimous for an in
crease. think, after considering the mat
ter pretty thoroughly, that Mr.. BLAINE
is right in his assertion that tobacco
is not a luxury but necessity and
hence should be relieved from the inter-
nal revenue assessment, while whisky is
abundantly able to carry any load that
may be imposed. LabOring men have
come to regard supply of tobacco to be
almost as Indispensable as bread for
their comfort, and the supply of the
farmer is not equal to the demand by
any means. Take LoRILLARD'S manu-
features, for instance, for we have none
in stock nor can we procure any at this
time; and what is worse than that, there
is no telling when we can obtain it.

THE PRESIDENTS EXAMPLE.

1t is not only in the cOnceiving and
suggesting of legislative reforms that
the president is setting the wise men OF
the country gathered in Washington an
excellent example, but he is showing
them also how to go about getting
themselves into the best possible condi-
ton physically for attaining the best
results mentally. In fine, the president
has become a preacher, by example, of
the gospel of exercise. He has taken to
horseback riding, and in consequence
that form of outdoor exercise has be-
come immensely popular at the national
capital.
The great bane of American public
life is the tremendous eXactiOn it makes
upon the time and energy of those who
occupy official position. The pressure
of severe mental labor. united with a
Discrimination toward recuperative eX-
ercise or ignorance of the proper way
of procuring that exercise, has been the
cause of the breaking down of many
American public men who were yet in
their prime. We live at too high pres
sure in this country.
The human machine is continue lily
hammering away without single stop
page for repairs until it finally cOllapSes,
utterly worn out. They do these tn ings
differently across the water. and ready
as we sometimes are to adopt suggeS-
lions from our English cousinS,i it is curl
Gus that we have not learned from
them something about the way to pre-
serve vitality and to maintain rugged
health. 1t must be an urgent reason
indeed that will prevent the English
public man from enjoying his frequent
holidayS-breathing times that we prac-
tically know nothing of-and his daily
exercise.
What man in public life on this side
of the water retains, like GLADSTONE,
in vigorous old age his youthful vigor?
The only name that occurs is that of
BANCROFT, the historian, who has all
his life been conscientious believer in
the efficacy of systematic exercise as a
means of prolonging mental and bodily
health. There can be no manner of
doubt that, if the statesmen in Washing
ton would refresh mind and body by
periodical devotion to forms of outdoor
life, the standard of legislative achieve
ments would be raised materially.
The president, wisely recognizing the
necessity in his own case, has done well
in setting the example. 1t would be
well if it were followed without eXcep-
ton. There are enough forms of eXer-
else to please every taste.

MAKING BAD WORSE.
The Anarchist Funeral Commit
tees Kicking for Precedence,

WIS AAASAihS IOr TcCcuclCc.
CHICAGO, Dec. 17.-COnf1ict of author
ity between the anarchist relief COM
mittee, sometimes known as the defense
committee, and committee appointed
by the Central Labor union, has led to a
complication that furnishes a comical
element in the otherwise solemn affair
of the burial of the anarchists that is an
nOunced to take place. tomorrow. The
nterment lot at Waldheim cemetery was
bought by the defense committee, the
members of which do not feel called
upon to give up the property to the
Central Labor union, protesting to be-
lieve that such action was not intended
by the request of the dead men that the
union take charge of the burial. 1t ap-
pears, however, that Mrs. Engel, the
widow of George Engel, and who con-
trolls the disposal of the body of Louis
Lingg, has got into quarrel with the
defense committee, and will not allow
those two bodies to be buried except by
the Central Labor Union, to the eXclu-
sion of all other organizations. But the
Central Labor Union has no exclusive
control over the burial lot, and cannot
bury the two bodies in it without the
consent of the relief committee. Unless,
therefore, this committee comes to an
understanding with Mrs. Engel, the
bodies of Engel and Lingg will not be
Inferred tomorrow with the rest. In
addition, Miss Van Zandt has expressed
a desire to be buried beside Spies,
and the relief committee has prom
ised to crafty her wishes as far as pos
sible by placing him separate from the
others and leaving room for her. This,
for some reason, seems to have been
added to the jealousy between the two
committees, and feeling runs high. One
of the principal differences between the
two committees is over the inscriptions
on the tablets, or monuments, to be
raised. The Central Labor union is
said to want a fiery political inscription,
while the relief committee appears to
desire only something to commemorate
the personality of the men.

TOOK DESPERATE CHANCES.
How Several Imprisoned Sailors
Got Ashore at San Francisco.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 17.-Several
days ago sailor who was imprisoned
on the English flag ship Triumph,
now lying in San Francisco bay, jumped
through port hole and swain ashore, a
distance of several miles. He was pur-
sued, but strong gale was blowing at
the time, and darkness coming on he
reached the wharves, where he would
have persisted from exhaustion but
for a Waterman, who dragged
him to land. His example has caused
several other sailors on the Triumph to
escape. Henry Ryder and John Stan
ley, two of the crew, have performed
the feat of jumping from the Triumph
with $40 in their clothes. They swan
against the outgoing tide for four hours,
and were found unconscious, but strug-
Cling on the surface of tile water by
fishermen four miles down the bay from
the Triumph's anchorage. When able
to walk they made their way to a sailors
boarding house ami will be shipped on a
merchant vessel, sailors being in great
demand here.

F. f.. Wheeler.

F. E. WHEELER, st. Paul White Lead
and Oil WorkS-Lake Minnetonka is at
present most attractive spot for those
who admire aquatic sports, and prof.
ect is on foot looking to the Inaugural
ton of an ice boat regatta there. Re-
Gently one of the Ice boats, owned by
a gentleman at Wayzata, accomplished
the distance between that place and
Excelsior, about seven miles, in less
than five minutes. There is no reason
why the Twin Cities should not enjoy
this eXhilarating sport, and series of
matches ought to be arranged for the
winter. Many of those who spent the
summer on the banks of -MinnetOnka
have retained their cottages, and make
frequent trips to them during the win
ter, and in some instances they have
purchased ice boats for their amuse-
ment. Owing to the sweep that the
wind has in the vicinity of Excelsior
and Wayzata, one of the ice boats can go
at the rate of ninety miles an hour, and
carry ten passengers at that.

EXPELLING THE ANARCHISTS.

Among the many important bills that
will be before congress this winter,
the one introduced by Mr.. ADAMS to
expel anarchists from this couI.t mer-
its as serious consideration as any of
them. Its Importance lies not only in
the apparent necessity fer such legisIa-
ton, but also in the novelty of such
measure in a republican government.
1t is admitted that there appears 10 be
necessity for Legislation of this charac-
ter, and yet the enactment OF law of
the kind Indicated would be the longest
stride toward mGnarchical government
that the republic has ever made. The
anarchists are an undesirable class in
. any country. 1t wouid he 4 bless

from United States territory.
We have no need for the seditiouS citi-
Zens or subjects of otter governments.
But how to keep them awey or to get
rid of them after they are CIce here is
the question. While we acknowledge
that the ADAMS bill would accomplish
the desired end, We also feel that such
law would be dangerous precedent. If

A Row With the Milwaukee.

Speclal TO the GloOe.
WINoNA, Dec. 17.-Assistant General
Superintendent Case and Superintend-
ent Underwood, of the Milwaukee & st.
Paul road, were in town to-day, and had
conference with the mayor, city engi-
neer and members of the council rela-
tive to the opening up of several streets
across the roads track, to the property
lying south. The rapid growth of the
city has made quite boom in city lots
south of the Milwaukee track, and a
large number of houses have been
erected there the past year. The people
living over there have made application
through the council to have the streets
opened. The railroad company will not
open the streets across its depot
grounds, but to-day made an offer to
open up Franklin and Johnston streets.
The council did not seem satisfied with
these concessions, and no agreement
has been reached in the matter. Some
time ago the city council passed reso-
luton authorizing the city attorney to
take the necessary legal steps to compel
the railway company to open number
of streets, some of which crossed the
cOmpany's switching tracks and depot
grounds. The matter was postponed,
however, to permit conference with
the railway company.

EUROPE'S STORM.

Our foreign news this morning has a
decidedly warlike aspect. The cloud
which hung on the European horizon a
little while ago no larger than mans
hand is now looming up in massive pro-
portions. Russia evidently realizes the
menacing conditions, and is rapidly
hurrying forward the work Of protect
ing her frontiers. The aggressive tone
of the German reichStag is evidence that
Russia's fears are well grounded. The
temper of the public mind at Berlin
leaves no room to doubt that
war is imminent. England, too,
has caught the infection, and
places her navy at the disposal
of the powers to aid in enforcing the
tripartite agreement. France, poor
France, has too many domestic troubles
and internal diSsenSiOns just now to as
sumo an aggressively belligerent atti-
tude, but by the time the other powers
are fairly into it France will have healed
her local quarrels sufficiently to become
an active factor in the great contest
which will probably result in re-map-
ping Europe, 1t now looks as though
the beginning of the end were at hand,
and another month will in all probable
ity reveal the fierceSt and most destruct-
i've war that ever swept the continent.

FEDERATION OF LABOR.
DOings of the Convention in Ses

sion at Baltimore.
BALTIMORE, Dec. 17.-The conven-
ton of the American Federation of La
Dor this morning took up its conSidera-
ton of the report of the committee on
resolutions. Many unimportant mat
tiers were acted upon and business was
disposed of as rapidly as possible The
resolution introduced by Mr.. Block, del
egate from the Bakers union, denounc-
ing the actions of the police in various
cities interfering with meetings and the
tendency of the authorities in some sec
tl0nS to curtail the constitutional rights
OF the people, and insisting that the
spirit of anarchy as displayed by the
authorities should be condemned by the
working people, was the subject of pro-
longed debate. 1t was vigorously OPP
posed by a few conservative delegates.
but was finally passed after the words
unlawful oppression" had been Substi-
tuted for anarchy. A resolution was
adopted advising workingmen to guard
more carefully their constitutional
rights and to foster a spirit of indie
pendent political action. Another urged
the extension of the educational system
and the necessity of having the science
OF government added to the list of sub
lectS taught IN the public schools. The
Blair educational bill was endorsed.
The protest against reduction of the
internal revenue tax on tobacco was
approved,as was also the protest against
the proposed eXtradition treaty with
Russia. The efforts being made to
establish an international system of
arbitration as substitute for war was
approved in resolution. The coercion
policy of England towards Ireland was
condemned and sympathy expressed
with Ireland in her struggles for
emancipation. The thanks of the con-
vention were extended to members of
the press, the mayor of Baltimore and
the local reception committee. An
effort was made to have the convention
pass resolution against any reduction
in the tariff on raw materials, but it was
not successful. The Chicago printers
difficulty with their employers was de-
plored, and resolution was passed Sus-
tanning them in the stand they have
taken. The eight-hour bill under con-
slderation by congress was warmly en-
dorsed, and after the adoption of few
minor measures the convention adj

ALFRED DUFREsNE, of the p II. Kelly
Mercantile Company-Business up to

THE LONG AND SHORT.
The Peculiar Plea of the Union
Pacific COmDany.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-THE hearing
in the case of John Ell. Martin and n. III.
Martin, of Denver, against the Southern
Pacific Railroad company and roads con-
trOlled by it, alleging violation of the
long and short haul clause Of the inter-
state law, was continued before the in
terState commerce commission to-day.
Thomas r. Kimball. the general freight
agent of the Union Pacific road, and
w. G.ClementS were called as witnesses
and admitted that greater freight rates
were charged between San Francisco
and Denver than between San Fran
cisco and Omaha and justified on the
ground that the Canadian Pacific COM
pany, being competitor for the bust
ness to Missouri river points, compelled
the Union Pacific to make reduction
in favor of those points. The Canadian
Pacific being without the Jurisdiction of
the commission, the defendants claim
that under the circumstances stated
above there has been no violation of the
law. Mr.. Martin in his testimony
stated that the discrimination was made
in the interest of Kansas City.

CHICAGO MARKET GOSSIP.
Regarding Fluctuations Schemes
and ArmOur's Actions.

Special to the Globe.
CHICAGO, Dec. 1.-THE markets
opened higher Oh sentiment and coun-
try buying orders, with May wheat
quoted at SAC, May corn at 545sc and
May pork at $685.. Offerings of every
thing on the list were unlimited. There
was world of wheat for sale at SAC, and
of corn at 5424@541sc. Wheat declined
first hour. For the first half hour
there was rafting trade in pro-
visions. The floor traders made a
determined and concerted drive at
the market, and carried pork
for May down to S15.S211z, May lard to
SS22115, and March ribs to S7.9715. From
this range there was a slight improve
ment, and the market acted strong.
Only 900 hogs were received at the
yards to-day. and 10000 for the week
against 1925 for the corresponding
week last year. The top prices Of the
day were obtained early in the morning.
Wheat sold down to $500. Corn to
sac, and pork to $15.75-all for May.
The average of prices was considerably
above the range, and the markets were
firm at slight decline from outside
quotation, and lowest prices were above
were rather steadier than they
have been of late, but the feeling
abroad does not seem to be especially
firm as yet; holders are still represent
ed to be offering grain freely at current
rates.
Possibly the war news, which carries
with it reminder of the possibility of
the shutting off of Russian supplies,
may have something to do with the i'm
proved feeling abroad, but the news did
not produce the slightest effect here to
day, for wonder, though it Influenced
stock speculation more than little.
Hutchinson was the mainstay of the
wheat market to-day, his purchases be-
lug on q large scale. The market was

narrower to-day and outside business
slack, not only in wheat, but in all
the pits. In provisions a strong effort
was made early to bull the market to
sell ON. Bloom bid 115c above the mar
ket for pork, and he bought some at S16.
As indicative of Armour's attitude on
provisions it is stated by commission
merchants that he Is buying January
and selling May, whereas last year he
took their January contracts off their
hands and sold May sparingly. Last
year he wanted the stuff; this year he
seems to be quite willing that the other
fellows should have the deal and the
profits to be made out of it, at least that
is the way it seems to the commission
merchants and to the trade in general.
Closing-ProvisiOns to-day are at a
small advance over Yesterday.
